Precept #2 Jesus told them, “If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.” (John 8:42)             Adam was sent into the garden of God to tend and care for it, and to fill the world with people.

Precept #3 “Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.” (John 5:19)             In John Chapter 17, Jesus is praying to the Father.

This is where we will begin, “And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here, and watch.” (Mar 14:34) Walking about a stone’s throw away, Jesus falls to the ground all alone, crying out to His Father. “And he said, Abba, Father, all things are…

Precept #5 “For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men,  and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day.” (Mark 9:31) Let’s Pray “Daddy, I know many people have given their lives because of their faith in Jesus.
